Unless Atari puts something out that comes under 60%, then no more easy XBLA money.

I see more of this happening as production costs continue to rise.

This is right in line with what Harrison was preaching right before he departed with Sony. No surprise here.

JOUST online! I'm still shocked they released Atari Anthology on the first Xbox with nothing more than leaderboards. Combat is not the best game in the world but it sure sucks alone! Jesus Atari get it together, this is just sad.

Sounds like Harrison has thrown the white flag, and will stop making real video games.

Erm...

I wonder what PH means? MMOs? or games that have both single-and mult-player modes.

Hmm... so they saw that they weren't making money on the titles they spent a shit load of money on and they decided to stop doing that. Yea... shame on them - you have to appease us whiny gamers even though we don't play your games!

That or they could just make better games... but there's no guarantee that they'd sell unless they had the word Halo, GTA, Mario, etc. in the title.

No dude the problem is that "us whiny gamers" would not buy their games because they SUCK did you even play Driver 3? I mean the first couple were pretty good for that time period and they just force fed us shit games for the past 5 years or so and they dont deserve anything from us gamers to be honest. I am really excited about Alone in the Dark, maybe they will finally make something that is worth their time, and ours. But then again it is made by Atari, and Phil "I Love Second Life on consoles" Harrison. Ok ok ok so there will probably not be SL on a console but if someone was going to shovel that horrid shit to consoles it would be Harrison and Atari.

Single player games can be lucrative. Shifting your focus in the marketplace isn't going to make your games any better, and I'm willing to bet this is just more of the downward spiral for these guys spearheaded by the retards in sales and marketing.

I know how Atari can save itself it came to me like a cow looks at an oncoming train! What do they do? Well let me tell you! They should put Runescape on PS3, Wii, 360, PS2, DS, PSP, Iphone,lol Ngage. There you have it! Port the living shit out of it and Atari stock will soar! (Hopefully into the dirt so we never have to play one of there horrid games again, unless Alone in the Dark rulez then they can come back into our loving gamer arms)

Maybe I'm in the minority, but I LIKE playing single-player games. With the exception of Fifa, or GTAIV, I rarely play online. Usually, game lounges are full of kids and the filthy wannabe gangster, mouths, or sexist/racist opinions.

Not for me thanks Phil!

Shame, cos (like the guys on penny arcade) i think they've stumbled on to something awesome with the "lots of episodes on one disc" idea.

But I guess breaking those episodes up into DLC chunks might lead to more money and less piracy in the long run. Maybe.
